Beautiful Death

For what is life Or its hidden meaning for this breath begotten Or is this chasing of wind a seasonal madness Life to celebrate as day, For as with day and night In this life death comes forth and death comes last Only in dawn lies all hope, when all is thought lost That mayhap we saw clear in darkness and thought it day But true light lies at the end of our lives.

A very profound and soul-searching poem! The only thing I have to say, mon ami, is: All that exists comes from its opposite! As light cannot exist without darkness and dry without wet so life cannot exist without death and vice versa! Death is a transition from one state of existence to the next! Have written some poems on the subject myself. Thank you Sean!
